It sounds like you don't actually have much at stake here. If you're poor, or queer, or Muslim, and you're choosing between a high-minded protest vote vs. keeping out the guy who will spend the next four years trying to destroy your family's safety, you sure as hell are voting to win.

Sometimes enough people need to care for things to change, and sacrificing what you care about to win will NEVER get you there.
